Chapter II Initial Appearance of Jade Balls

Mu Rong Kongming thought to himself. Even he could feel that he was holding his breath at a distance of thirty meters!

Mu Rong Kongming cupped his fist and said, "My two esteemed guests, please come to this humble residence. I apologize for not welcoming you!"

The grey-clothed old man laughed disdainfully, "Mayor Murong has spoken too much. You have been gazing at this pavilion from afar for half a day now. This is the only way for the mayor to welcome you."

Mu Rong Kongming was shocked. This person really had great skill, he didn't expect that every single move he made in the Ru Yi Workshop would be noticed. He hurriedly smiled and said, "This lowly one only admires these two masters and doesn't dare to disturb me.

The grey-clothed old man seemed to be reveling in the wine as he slowly said, "In this old man's opinion, the bustle of this city is not even comparable to a cup of spring wine with jade walls."

It was Mu Rong Kongming's great-grandfather who had broken through the third beast tide to celebrate the Primal Chaos. On the day of the Spring Equinox, he had used a special method passed down by his ancestors to brew the wine with citrus, inviting all of the mortals to celebrate together. When it came to Mu Rong Kong Ming, he had used Jade Wall City's Spring Water to brew this wine. The wine had a pleasant taste, and was revered by the world as a superior wine. Due to the complex brewing process and the lack of water from the greediness spring, the spring color jade wall could only be sold in the Dragon Tongue Aperture, with the exception of the Supreme Mystery Capital and the twelve pots. Looking around the entire Qing Qiu mountain, other than the true disciples of the Supreme Mystery, if they could taste the spring colors of the jade wall, they could also be considered to be enjoying the luxury of the mortal world. After that, there was another downcast scholar called "Laughing at the Yellow Citrus Wine", which was passed down as "Laughing at the Yellow Citrus Wine Awakening, Jade Pot Jin Dou Ye Sheng Bing". "Who will sing a limpid song on the column, and the jade wall will be lit up by the moon in spring." The world is even more eager to buy and drink this wine. Beautiful wine reflects beautiful scenery. In the Dragon Tongue Divide, the jade wall's spring color corresponds to the "Treading on the Snow for the Plum" scenery.

Mu Rong Kongming sat down at the alcohol table and laughed heartily. "Haha, you two masters, it's better to know your own wine when it's time for a reunion. You two masters, today's spring jade wall is enough, count it as my, Mu Rong Kongming's!"

The white clothed man loudly said, "What a good 'meeting friend'. Today, you and I are fated for each other. I never would have thought that Mayor Murong was also a person with feelings of camaraderie."

It was just that their skills were unfathomable. Thus, with a smile on his face, he said softly, "May I ask what your names are? I would like to leave this Ruoxi Pavilion so that you can come and taste the spring colors of the Jade Wall at any time."

The white robed man seemed to have sensed something as he muttered, "How can that be? We are just commoners in the mortal world. I, Dugu Jiuyi, happened to pass by Jade Wall City yesterday to explore the mountains and seek directions." His eyes flashed, full of anticipation and sincerity.

They were both travelling across the world, and they had met before. However, who would care about each other's past? Just like this person, immortal, god, demon, spirit, and demon, everyone had their own thoughts and interests, but no one cared about each other's past.

This Dugu Jiuyi was originally the capital of the Immortal World — the Mysterious Immortal from the Kunlun Ruins. His cultivation had already reached the eighth of the nine realms, the "Mysterious Mysterious Mysteries", and because of that, he was ranked the "Extreme Immortal", only second to the Immortal World's Sect Leader and Heavenly Immortal. He gradually grew tired of the lonely, lifeless, and ungrateful path of cultivation. Thus, he abandoned his own Immortal energy in front of all the other immortals, disregarded the path of cultivation, and willingly entered the mortal world to experience the life of a wild crane in the mortal world. He experienced the pain of being reincarnated into the cycle of life and death, and knew that flowers were blooming and falling. Because his Psionic Wonderful Realm was so profound, it would be difficult for his Supreme Celestial Intelligence to completely eradicate it from his body in such a short period of time, so at this moment, Dugu Jiuyi still had a few strands of immortal energy left in his body, allowing him to exchange blows with Daoist Qingyi.

These six realms' conflicts were very common, causing bloodshed in the body and heart. However, no one could be as open-minded as Dugu Jiuyi, who could see through everything and put down everything.

At this time, the grey-clothed old man finally spoke, and said with a stern voice: "A man with the same name as heaven and earth, the same name as the sun and moon, does he really need to have a name? This old man has long forgotten my name, so just call me Mr. Wine! " Saying that, he continued to drink his wine.

When these words came out, Murong Kongming's plan failed. He originally wanted to take the opportunity to find out the names of the two people and find out their background, but he didn't expect that Dugu Jiuyi's name wouldn't be verified and that the grey-clothed old man wouldn't even tell him his name.

Dugu Jiu raised his cup and invited, "Mayor Murong has been here for such a long time, why haven't you shared a cup of wine?"

Mu Rong Kong Ming's face turned slightly pale as he apologized, "Mister Dugu doesn't know this. Although I am well versed in the arts of wine, I never drink alcohol …" Mu Rong Kong Ming complained incessantly in his heart. Ah, the weakness of him not drinking wine was often discovered on the table, and he became the target of ridicule. Now, he wanted to find out more about the two of them, and it seemed that he would be ridiculed again.

The grey-clothed old man laughed heartily, "Haha, so the QIng Qiu Mountain actually has such a restrained and extraordinary person. To not touch wine, I'm impressed!" His words sounded kind and there was no sarcasm or sarcasm in them. It also made Mu Rong Kongming suddenly feel a kind of warmth in his heart, and with his experience of the six realms, he felt that although these two had profound dao abilities, unknown origins, and odd behavior, they did not have malicious intents. Instead, their words and actions revealed true kindness.

Mu Rong Kongming took the initiative to pour the two of them another cup of wine and cupped his fist again as he said, "From now on, Jade Wall City's Dragon's Note and Dragon's Heart Pavilion will be reserved for you two masters at any time. The jade wall that you drink will belong to me, Mu Rong Kongming!"

Dugu Jiuyi looked at the grey-clothed old man and said with a smile, "We will not accept without merit. Mayor Murong is so generous to the two of us, how can we accept it?"

Before the grey-clothed old man could speak, Mu Rong Kongming spoke first, "The wine is a gift to the fated one. Today, the three of us meet and we chat happily. The two of you are also very emotional. I, Mu Rong Kongming, love to make friends. The two of you are my friends from now on.

The grey-clothed old man spoke again with great difficulty, and said with a stern voice, "That's fine, today we personally saw the magnanimous master of Murong City, and saw him with our own eyes. It's unknown how much more imposing he is than those self-proclaimed experts of the Six Realms. Thank you, Mayor Murong, for your treatment of me. Today, I will promise you one thing. His words were resolute and decisive, causing everyone to admire his boldness.

Mu Rong Kong Ming was very touched, so he quickly cupped his hands together and expressed his gratitude.

In this world, fortune and misfortune had always depended on one another, and experts and experts often accompanied disaster. However, the people of the world only hoped that there would be people who would help, and ignored the fact that they would first overcome the calamity before asking for help.

He stood up and bowed as he said, "The two of you drink slowly, I won't disturb you. If you need anything, feel free to call for Shopkeeper Duan. If you need anything in the future, we will be waiting for you at Heart Pavilion!"

Mu Rong Kongming walked out of the Dragon Tongue Divide quickly. The guard behind him hurriedly asked in a low voice, "Mayor, do you need Bluebird's message to report to Supreme Mystery City?"

"Mm, it's not safe for the Cyan Bird to send a message. You should set off immediately and ride on horseback to Taixuan to report this matter to Duty Talent!" After the conversation at the Heart Pavilion, Mu Rong Kongming had let down his guard against Dugu Jiuyi and the grey-clothed old man, but he couldn't confirm their identities. Thus, he could only report to Tai Xuan Du.

As for Dugu Jiu Yi and the gray-clothed old man, they continued to drink until the afternoon of the next day. They saw that Ruoxi Pavilion had already placed over thirty empty wine jars, and the two were in the midst of their drinking battles.

Dugu Jiuyi shook his head helplessly and sighed lightly, "Sigh. The Six Realms are like dangerous eggs, swaying in the wind and rain. We can only live and amuse ourselves …"

At this time, the grey-clothed old man was already slightly drunk, he muttered in a low voice: "Brother Dugu, you are not the kind of person that roams the mountains like a crane, you have something on your mind. "Now that the Six Realms are filled with trials and tribulations, yet you cripple your immortal energy and soar into the mundane world, do you think you can be so carefree in the mortal world?" Even though the old wine official's voice was low, his tone was heavy and every word was resolute and decisive.

Dugu Jiu was shocked. He guessed that this person should be a top-level expert in the Mysterious Ancient City or the Twelve Altar Realm. Only then would he be able to see through his predecessor. After three days of drinking, not only was he unable to see through the slightest flaw in his opponent, but on the contrary, he was seen through by his opponent. He paled and said, "Brother, you have a good eye, I, Dugu Jiuyi, do not have the slightest bit of ambition in my heart for the Six Realms.

The grey clothed old man was already heavily drunk, but said word by word, "Little brother, in my opinion, if you were to turn the tides of the Six Realms around in the future, I'm afraid that your responsibilities will be great. The Heavens are on your side, and you won't be able to escape."

When Dugu Jiu saw that the old wine lord was already drunk, he wanted to change the topic. "You've finally reached the point where you can't drink anymore. According to the agreement, the only way to lose wine is to give away the keepsake!"

The grey-clothed old man raised his head, his eyes were hazy but he seemed to be thinking about something. He slowly took out a white soft package made of silk and placed it on the table. After carefully unfolding it, a square piece of ordinary jade appeared in front of him.

The old wine lord said in a daze, "Fine, how could I break my promise?" "This piece of unpolished jade will temporarily be yours." With that, he handed it over to Dugu Jiuyi.

Dugu Jiu did not pay any attention to the piece of jade. He was secretly surprised that the unrestrained and worn out old man in grey clothing could actually wrap the jade in such a perfect manner, as if it was his beloved object. At this moment, the square piece of unpolished jade had a dull luster. It lacked a sense of texture and could only be used as an ornament for ordinary people.

Staring at Dugu Jiuyi, the grey-robed old man became serious as he spoke, "This jade is not an ordinary one. If I meet someone who is willing to give it to me, I will definitely be able to help you in the future." Maybe, when I find you for a drink in the future, I'll win it back. "

Dugu Jiuyi looked at the jade stone, and was skeptical of the gray-clothed old man's words. He nonchalantly said, "Then I'll help brother keep it safe for now." In his heart, he thought to himself: Out of the Six Realms Jade, perhaps the most precious is the Twilight Jade, and what use can this small piece of jade have?

The grey-clothed old man slowly stood up, his eyes stared straight at Dugu Jiuyi, and he said seriously, "You and I have been drinking well for three days, and I know that you are still trying to guess my identity. Brother Dugu, I am just an idle person from the Qing Qiu mountain. I have spent my life wandering around, and I don't want to meet a close friend in this Jade Wall City. This piece of jade will follow me for my entire life, and I will definitely help you in the future. You were originally an Extreme Immortal in the Immortal World and were considered a supreme immortal, but you chose to give up your position to enter the mortal world. However, the Six Realms are not yet at peace. You will have to work hard in the future. "Brother, there is no end to this banquet. We will part ways here and meet again!" Before he could finish his sentence, there was a "whoosh" and a flash of green light. The old man instantly disappeared without a trace.

Dugu Jiuyi was the only one left in the huge Heart Pavilion. He was still recalling the old man's words and touching the unpolished jade, thinking that this unpolished jade might bring him a bloody storm.

No one knew that this seemingly ordinary piece of unpolished jade was the divine artifact of the Six Realms — — Twilight Jadeite Blades. The Land of Chaos contained the internal power of the ancient goddess, Nuwa, and the Sky, Earth, and Yellow scriptures. The Six Realms were connected to each other, and the Six Realms were connected to each other. As for why the divine items which the Six Realms desired ended up being lost here, or even became tokens for the gray cloth old man, that was something that would come later.

Perhaps, many years later, this Twilight Jade would set off a bloody storm in the Six Realms. But at this moment, who knew what would happen in the future?

At this moment, Mu Rong Kongming was walking on the main street when a guard suddenly reported, "City Lord, the Madam is about to arrive. Please return to the residence quickly!"
